In the style and heart of the letter to Smyrna found in Revelation 2:8-11.
To the Gathering:
The great mystery of Jesus is this…
He is the first and the last,
The beginning and the end,
Yesterday, today and tomorrow.
And so, you, and I, should place our trust in him.
I have been wondering if you and I really understand what suffering is.
And because of the drought of paying a high cost for following Jesus,
we don’t realize how privileged we are
to worship him freely
And loudly
And openly
and, if we dare, with reckless abandon
We are rich, but in so many ways we seem poor.
What are we afraid of?
What are we waiting for?
With all my love,
Joshua
